Could some of you fellas post your gun cleaning techniques and equipment.

I've hunted for way too long to count and have done what I thought was a great job cleaning my guns, but there is always room for improvement.

I'd especially like to know what you use on rifles and blackpowder guns.

Thanks
 
I use JB paste and Kroil,,thats it nuthin else,,got a 25-06 with at least 4000 ronds that will still shoot .6 or less,,some people are scared of the paste but it`s all I use..
 
Montana's Copper Cream (no smell, no mess, the best)used with a
Bore guide
composite cleaning rod
followed up with some breakfree CLP

I also use the Butch's Bore Shine but also use Kroil and plain old Hoppes #9 to leave in the bore after cleaning. It helps to remove any extra fouling as well as acting as a rust preventive. I then run a clean patch with Kroil before shooting and then dry patches until the bore is dry.
 
For my muzzleloader I use hot water. RemOil to lubricate. T/C Anti-Seize on the threads of the breech plug. Every few seasons I hit it with shotgun choke tube cleaner to remove the sabot plastic from the grooves.

On the rifles I use Butch's Bore Shine and Sweet's 7.62 copper remover. Light coat of RemOil inside and out.
 
When rifle hunting I carry a pre-fouled barrel. My rifle will shoot high with a clean tube.
When MZ hunting its usually a clean barrel.
